CIVIL WARS EXPOSE Western Hypocrisy And Double Standards.

Trump Is No Better Than

Bush or Obama!

(M. Javed Naseem)

Donald Trump announced during his Presidential campaign that
he believed in 2-State (Palestine and Israel) solution to the Palestinian
problem. But now he has changed his stance. He announced during campaign that
he would stop all wars and there would be no more invasions of other countries.
But now he has changed his mind and he is bombing Syria and Yemen. He said many
other things to entice American voters and win the elections. Once he was in
the White House, things were running on the same pattern as they were during
Bush and Obama tenures. As a matter of fact, things are more chaotic than
before although he is claiming success during his first 100 days in office.

People were hoping to see a lot of problems solved but in
reality, they are facing more problems than in the past. But it’s only the beginning. It can get better,
or even worse! Let us hope for the better!

One thing looks certain! It’s not going to get better for
the people of Syria, Palestine, Iraq, Yemen or Afghanistan. There would be more
and more ‘false flag’ operations and America and Europe would continue their
joint (financial and military) efforts for the establishment of Greater Israel,
at all costs, even WW-III.

Muslim countries would get no relief. Their bombing,
pounding and ass-kicking will continue (might even get worse!) till the Zionist
objectives are achieved.

This week, people saw a protest rally in London against
Israeli ambassador Mark Ragev as he was invited to address the students at
London University. Why would a British university invite the ambassador of a
country that is violating all U.N. resolutions; is busy in constructing illegal
settlements on Palestinian land; violating human rights; and killing innocent
civilians in Palestine and Syria? Events like this expose the American, British
and European double standards and hypocrisy.

Demonstrators turned out in force at the School of African
and Asian Studies in central London to protest the presence of the Israeli
Ambassador to the UK. Ambassador Mark Ragev was invited to speak at the
prestigious university against the wishes of many students and pro-Palestinian
organizations.

Jared Kushner, the son-in-law and confidant of U.S. President-elect Donald
Trump, is a director and board member at the Kushner Foundation which has given
money to illegal Israeli settlements in the West Bank as well as extremist
Jewish groups connected to violent attacks against Palestinians, Israeli
newspaper Haaretz reported Monday.
The findings are based on tax records from Kushner’s parents for the years
2010-2014, which show that the Charles and Seryl Kushner Foundation gave almost
US$60,000 to settlement projects and organizations in Israel, which Washington
deems publicly as illegal, yet finds covert ways of funding.
Trump has said that Kushner, who is a married to Ivanka Trump and is an
Orthodox Jew, would be “very good” as his Middle East envoy to broker a deal between
the Palestinians and Israelis.
The Kushner Foundation gave US$20,000 to the group American Friends in Beit
El Yeshive, an organization that supports projects in the ultra-conservative
settlement of Beit El.
Beit El was built on private Palestinian land without Israeli government
approval, according to Haaretz and human rights groups.
More shocking is that the president of that group is David Friedman, who
advised Trump on foreign policy in Israel and Palestine and is his real estate
lawyer who told AFP in October that in his view settlements are not illegal and
that he believed Trump agrees with him.
To top it all off, the Kushner foundation has given money to one of the most
extreme groups within the settler community. The foundation gave funds to the
radical “Od Yosef Chai” group in the settlement of Yitzhar.
“This particular yeshiva has served as a base for launching violent attacks
against nearby Palestinians villages and Israeli security forces, as well; as a
result, it no longer receives funding from the Israeli government,” Haaretz
reported Monday.

This settlement is also seen as the leader of the settler
movement’s so-called “price tag” policy, which calls for attacks against
Palestinians in retaliation for actions of the Israeli government against West
Bank settlements.

The Washington Post, which confirmed the Haaretz report on
Kushner’s foundation, said this year’s Republican platform’s position on Israel
was changed to what Trump called the most pro-Israeli stance “of all time.” It
does not explicitly call for a two-state solution and rejects the “false
notion” that Israel is occupying the West Bank, the U.S. newspaper said.

Although the U.S. is the number one sponsor of Israel
financially, militarily and politically, Trump’s staunch right-wing position
will most likely translate into even more suffering and repression for the
Palestinian people.

Israeli authorities are planning to build some 15,000 new
settlements in East Jerusalem, Reuters and local media reported, citing the
Housing Ministry. Palestinian authorities condemned the decision, calling it
the “deliberate sabotage” of peace talks.

The Housing Ministry and the Jerusalem Municipality are
working on the plan, with proposals for 25,000 homes in Jerusalem, 15,000 of
which would be in East Jerusalem, Housing Minister Yoav Galant told Israeli
Radio, Reuters reports. The authorities plan to implement the project within
two years, he added.

"We will build 10,000 units in Jerusalem and some
15,000 within the [extended] municipal boundaries of Jerusalem. It will
happen," he said.

According to Saeb Erekat, the Palestinians' chief
negotiator, Israel's decision is the “deliberate sabotage” of efforts to resume
talks between Israel and Palestine.

“All settlements in occupied Palestine are illegal under
international law,” he said in a statement, as cited by Reuters. “Palestine
will continue to resort to international bodies to hold Israel, the occupation
power, accountable for its grave violations of international law throughout
occupied Palestine.”

Israeli authorities could announce news of the construction
on Jerusalem Day, which this year falls on May 24, Channel 2 reported. The
Israeli national holiday marks the reunification of Jerusalem and the
establishment of Israeli control over the Old City after the 1967 Six-Day War.

Reports about fresh plan for settlement enlargement in East Jerusalem come
ahead of the official visit of US President Donald Trump, scheduled for May 22.
Speaking to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in February, Trump took
many by surprise when he called for “holding back on settlements for a
little bit.”
The construction of settlements in the West Bank is considered illegal under
international law. The international community has long voiced concerns over
the controversial practice while condemning the deteriorating security
situation between Israelis and Palestinians.

Some 400,000 Israeli citizens are currently residing in the
West Bank along with 2.8 million Palestinians, according to Reuter’s data.

The European Union has delivered a public diplomatic rebuke
to Israel, which plans to demolish 42 homes in a Bedouin village in the West
Bank that are expected to make way for Jewish settlements, accusing it of
breaking the Geneva Convention.

EU Ambassador to Israel Lars Faaborg-Andersen chose to voice the protest
during a traditionally courteous introductory meeting between ambassadors of
the 28 EU states and incoming Israeli Foreign Ministry director-general Yuval
Rotem. As officials exchanged pleasantries in an upmarket Tel Aviv hotel,
Faaborg-Anderson brought the room to a standstill to read a lengthy scathing
message, approved by the EU’s security and diplomacy commission, with Rotem
stood in the audience.

The Danish diplomat said that the demolition, ordered last
month, of Khan Al-Akhmar, located east of Jerusalem in the West Bank's Area C,
would result in the compulsory resettlement of about 140 residents, and the
destruction of an Italian-funded school, which is providing education for over
150 children from the surrounding.

The UK, which recently said it could launch a preemptive
nuclear strike “in the most extreme circumstances,” runs the risk of being
“wiped off the face of the Earth,” the deputy head of a Russian upper house
committee said.

“The statement made by UK’s Defense Minister Michael Fallon
calls for a harsh response and I’m not afraid of going too far. At best this
statement may be seen as an element of a psychological war, which looks
especially revolting in this context,” Frants Klintsevich wrote on Facebook.

“There is a quite natural question then: what country could
be primitively targeted by the UK?” the deputy head of the Federation Council’s
Committee for Defense and Security said.

In case the UK strikes a nuclear power, then “the UK, which
doesn’t have vast territory, will be literally wiped off from the face of the
earth with a counter-strike,” Klintsevich said.

In the event of targeting a non-nuclear country, this will
remind of the US nuclear attack on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, he added.

Klintsevich’s comment comes after Fallon on Monday said that
the UK is prepared to carry out a preemptive nuclear strike against any
enemies, even if Britain is not under attack.
